Identifying stable, lucrative careers for 50s+ professionals until their 70s.

For professionals in their 50s seeking a career change that offers stability and lucrative income into their 70s, fields valuing experience, soft skills, and less physical demand are ideal. Examples include consulting (leveraging corporate experience), project management, legal support (paralegal), specific technical roles (e.g., IT support, data analysis with re-skilling), teaching/training, or financial advising. Entrepreneurship is also an option. Hot skills include project management, client relationship management, strategic thinking, and mentoring. Certifications like PMP or CFP are beneficial. Resumes should emphasize leadership, strategic contributions, and transferable skills, showcasing continuous learning. Benefits include stable income, often flexible hours, and intellectual engagement.
